For a week of long walks with the dog, hearty pub lunches and a silent night's sleep, look no further than this property in the Scottish Highlands. This happy home comfortably sleeps seven and welcomes two dogs, so you won't have to leave your prized pets behind on this escape to the country. You won't find a TV, Wi-Fi connection or mobile signal at this rural retreat, ensuring a true escape to nature for the family and 24/7 cuddles for your four-legged friends.

In keeping with the countryside location of the home, the decor is traditional throughout. The kitchen and dining room make a sociable space to unwind and plan the day ahead, with comfy sofas crowded round the original oil-fired Esse wood burner, a warm spot for man's best friend to sleep. After dinner, enjoy evening drinks in the cosy lounge. Find a retro board game and enjoy some family time in front of the roaring open fire or spend some time alone, poring over a good book with a happy dog curled up at your feet. Outside the home you'll find a spacious garden, enclosed and set to lawn, ideal for letting Rover and Fido let off some steam at the end of a long day.

Accessible up half a mile of farm track, seclusion is certainly a selling point of this wonderful property. Enjoy a rewarding 5-mile walk to the nearest village, where the local pub serves food and welcomes your canine companions. Collar up and head out on a Munro bagging expedition, with local mountains Carn Eige (19 miles) and Mam Sodhail (22 miles) boasting challenging walks and an abundance of sticks to be fetched. A less strenuous day can be enjoyed on the nearby Loch Ness (19 miles), where regular dog-friendly cruises sail the tranquil waters.

Wonderful cottage and idyllic location and complete escapism.. the enclosed garden was perfect for our prey obsessed spaniel and the cattle grid gateway concerned us at first but he was unable to fathom escaping over it thank goodness!
